Taylor Swift’s ‘Back to December’ Video: Who is the Mystery Man?

Taylor Swift won’t say exactly who her song “Back to December” is about. She understands that the speculation is what makes it interesting–for example, do we really want to get to the bottom of the “You’re So Vain” mystery? It’s been widely reported that the song is about “Twilight” actor Taylor Lautner, but Swift hasn’t confirmed that. In the new music video, the dude is played by male model Guntars Asmanis. In any case, Swift has other things on her mind now. “I’m in the production office making a necklace out of paper clips,” she tweeted three minutes ago.

Here’s the clip. What did you think of the video? Leave your thoughts in the comments.
